Instructions
1. Make a small hole in the vent pipe to
allow the insertion of the probe for the air
flow switch. This hole should be located in
a straight run of the vent pipe. Do not make
the hole close to any sharp bends or elbows
where the air flow is turbulent.
2. Insert the tip of the probe so that it is
perpendicular to the air flow within the vent
pipe, as close to the center of the airstream
as possible. Three feet of tubing is provided:
trim excess length to prevent kinking or
crimping of the tubing. Use a six-foot length
of ¼" OD hardwall tubing if dryer jet is
located 10 feet or more from the dryer. If

installing Model #9460, proceed to Step 6.
If installing model #9450, complete steps
3, 4, and 5.
3. Mount the air flow switch in a conve-
nient location, free from vibration. The
switch must be mounted vertically, with the
sample line connections facing either to the
side or down. See Figure 2.
4. Use tubing to connect the probe to the
“H” side of the air flow switch. Refer to
Figure 3 to identify the “H” side of the
switch. Refer to Bulletin AFS262.05 for
additional information on tubing.
5. Remove the cover from the air switch
and connect the wiring as shown in Figure
1. Locate the “common” and “normally
open” terminals of the air switch. Be sure
to follow all applicable codes when wiring
or consult your local electrician.
6. Locate the set point adjusting screw
(marked "INC") on the air switch. Turn the
screw in the direction of the arrow (clock-
wise) approximately 10 turns. Turn on the
dryer, making sure the lint vent is clean.
Slowly turn the adjusting screw counter-
clockwise until the auxiliary blower motor
comes on. Next, shut the dryer off and see
if the auxiliary blower motor shuts off as
well. If it does not shut off after a moment,
turn the adjusting screw clockwise until the
auxiliary blower motor shuts off after the
dryer shuts off. Be sure to check the opera-
tion of the entire system.
7. Replace the cover of the air flow switch
and tighten the screws. The air flow switch
is now ready to control the dryer jet.
